oi mate, that'll show 'em the true punk spirit.

Nope

Besides that thread is now degenerating into the world's most boring argument about f-ucking grunge which is the world most boring form of music so I guess it stands to reason.

Actually it's become a pretty entertaining dismantling of your argument and a point by point confirmation that you don't know wtf you're talking about. Your entire argument is based on what you perceive as the MTV reaction to the Nevermind album

You posted that thread, and you make a statement like

Everybody had to sound like Nir-vomit and Hurl Jam and Stone Pimple Toilets.

It was a disgrace. F-uck grunge and f-uck Seattle. Ten times worse than Detroit.

And then when challenged on this (which you should thoroughly expect when you post a statement like that on a MUSIC DISCUSSION forum) you CLEARLY demonstrate that you do not know ANYTHING about the Seattle music scene from that era unless it came from Empty Vee.

Urban (whom I really miss) said it best

...although I would make the argument that it's closer to 40 years. In any case, your credibility is zero on any rock-era music topic except maybe bubble gum. No wonder you don't want that thread stickied. I originally voted no but I would be sorely tempted to change my vote now as a shining example of a bumbled, ham-fisted attempt at debate, like a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest. Reviling an entire genre of music when you clearly don't even know what it is.

Smeenus, it's about what you like or don't like. You like grunge so I'm wrong in your eyes no matter what I say (now DON'T say "I don't like grunge, you're just wrong!" because we know that's your style).

You say that as though you had a point to make. I think I've made it clear that I hold the deepest contempt for most music today. It hasn't been good since the early 90s--coincidentally just about the time grunge came on the scene.

HAHA!! You ARE an idiot, aren't you??

Actually like almost EVERY genre I like SOME of it but not ALL of it or even MOST of it. As I stated several times in this thread I like Nirvana's Bleach album but never want to hear Nevermind again. I think that Alice In Chain's Dirt album is one of the 50 greatest rock albums ever made (and BTW I do not consider this album Grunge, it just happens to come from the time and place) but I can't stand Pearl Jam. I LOVE Soundgarden's Badmotorfinger (see parenthetical comment regarding Alice In Chains) But really loathed Stone Temple Pilots (who aren't from Seattle, and were clearly trying to sound like they were).

You see, that's what most music fans do. They give something a listen rather than dismiss it out of hand because of a perception that has little to NO bearing on the actual music. You say Grunge like it's one single thing even though it was clearly demonstrated in that thread that you have ZERO idea what it even is.

No, if there's one thing I am not it's an idiot, unless you're prepared to call nearly this entire board idiots. And if you are ready to say that, WTF are you even doing here? Maybe it's time you moved along. This is a music forum. It's not suited for someone who admits they are hostile to the entire premise of the board.

Now the problem arguing with Lord Larehip concerning music, is that he's fully aware deep down that he's well and truly out of his depth when it comes to debating about different kinds of music and to cover his lack of knowledge, he tries to concoct a hypothesis that he believes to be watertight. But he then makes the cardinal sin, of believing that others are equally clueless as well concerning the music genre in question. His stance might convince Joe Public but on a music forum he's highly exposed.

Ok Lord Larehip has said no. Thread closed.
